Tesla is expanding in Czech Republic and Iceland
Quote: “According to its career website, Tesla is looking for several service and sale employees for a new store and service center in Reykjavik.”
I'm guessing these are new?
Looking around Europe there seem to be a lot more grey dots in Eastern Europe, the Balkans, and increased density in Spain, Portugal Ireland etc but I'm not 100% sure - it could be that I don't really look at the European map much
If the sales numbers are good (which i think will be) they will for sure add more yes, probably lots of places (hotels,guesthouses) will be adding destination chargers as wellReally still need one in 1) Akureyri, 2) Somewhere from Höfn to Djúpivogur, and 3) Reykjavík (for those not starting in Reykjavík!). But yes, it's coming together!
Tesla is now officially launching in Iceland with its first (and likely only) location opening in the country and orders for Model S, Model X, and Model 3 can now be placed online.
Iceland is perfect for massive adoption of electric vehicles. The island’s electricity generation is already almost 100% renewable, which makes EVs super clean, and being a remote island, petrol is expensive.
Albeit being sparsely populated with only ~350,000 people, there’s a significant concentration of population around Reykjavík and people have relatively short commutes that can be covered with most electric vehicles.
It helped the country increase EV sales over the last few years and while we are only talking about a few thousand plug-in sales last year, it represents over 15% of total cars sales in the country, which is higher than in most other markets around the world.
Tesla officially selling its cars in the country should help boost the percentage significantly.
The automaker made the announcement last night
